Saurasomon

It’s time now to revive one of the oldest ideas in my lifetime. This is Saurasomon, an original Digimon I created back when I was eight, though with a radically different look.

So as a kid, I always use have imaginative scenarios of being a Digidestined and joining Tai, Izzy and the others on their adventures. Even use to draw myself (badly) into the coloring books I owned with my own Digimon partner.

Originally this character was called Dinomon, but that name has since become the name for Tyranomon’s mega form. I was next going to call him Raptormon, but felt that would be too cliched given my affiliation with raptors (Green Raptor Studios).

Finally the name Saurasomon was chosen to better affiliate him with his planned evolutions. The word “saur” is Latin for lizard and has since become a staple for word Dinosaur. The name “Saurasomon” was created after finding another fan-fiction Digimon called “Saurmon.”

I’m currently finalizing the designs on his Champion, Ultimate and Mega evolution forms. I think I got the Champion form locked down, but the other two are still in need of work. I’ll be posting them up in good time, I’ve just had other priority’s getting in the way.
